XObeilr Pasha.

CAIRO. March 1S.-It is reported that
the Egyptian government is meditating the
release of ZObehr Pasha. He is a prisoner
of state at Gibraltar. where he has been in
captivity since March so. 1855. He was
arrested March IA. at Alexandria, by order
of the khedive, for alleged treason, it hay
ing been charged that he was a secret ally
of Ell Mahd, and had been largely instru
mental in securing for the false prophet the
fall of KhartOum. Zobehr Pasha preceded
Gen. Gordon as governor of the SOudan.
Gordon admired him even after his re-
moval from the governorship and insisted
that he should be restored to power as the
only man capable of maintaining order in
the Soudan, The arrest and transportation
of Zobehr is attributed by large and IN
fiuential party i'll Egypt to intrigue. and
this party always insisted he was trueipa-
triot and that the charges against him
which effected his downfall were pure in
ventiOnS.

A servant girl named Walsh is believed
also to be among the dead. The walls of
the burned building are a menace to life
and until they are razed and the ruin S
cooled, no search for the bodies can be
made. IL is undoubtedly fact that at least
thirty persons periShed.

THE London Scandal.

LONDON, March, 1S.-The parliament
ary committee appointed to investigate the
charges against the London corporation
held its first session to-day, Lord Harting
ton presiding. Mr.. Firth. formerly mem
Der of p arliament, deposed that he had ex-
amined the accounts of the corporation.
He found that special committee had been
appointed in 1882 to oppose the Ieform
bill, and that there was expended by the
committee a total of $50, 600. He said that
practically the city accounts had never
been audited, Notwithstanding the fact that
the corporation employed ..so-called audit
Ors, who. the witness added, were livery
men, without practical knowledge of their
duty. Meetings held in support OF the re-
form bill were raided by roughs, who had
been supplied with thousands of forged
tickets of admission by corporation officials.
A man named Hodge made an affidavit that
he had been engaged to bribe roughs to
break up reform meetings. Mr.. Scott. city
chamberlain, being sworn, presented a
written official protest against the produc-
ton OF the corporation accounts. on the
ground that the house of commons exceeded
its rights in demanding the accounts, and
acted in manner derogotary to the rights
and privileges of the corporation.

THE STATE OF TRADE.
The Weekly Statement Regarding
the Condition OF Business.

NEW YORK, March 1S.-R. u. Dun &
Co., in their Weekly Trade Review say: 1t
is becoming more generally realized that
the interstate commerce bill is for the time
affecting business unfavorable in some
branches, as in the m movement Of dry goods
to the West. The temporary furry of
greater activity results from the desire to
transport before the coming change OF
rates, but in other trades the uncertainty
as to future rates produces almost
paralysis, which is rendered more serious
in the iron business by the question whether
railway building and repairing may not be
checked. Many vaguely look for
a better understanding of the
act when the commissioners are
appointed. but the commissioners will have
to await the decisions of many courts be-
fore they can know what powers they
have, hence it can hardly be hoped that the
uncertainty regarding the effects of the
act will be soon removed. Probably the
great Baltimore q Ohio negotiations, which
cause hesitation in the stock market, result
from the passage of this act. MI. Sully
does not seem to have succeeded, but it is
generally believed that some important
consolidation of interests may be effected,
which may have important influence on the
future value of securities. Other events
have rather favored prices on the whole.
European purchases are again OF some
magnitude and the danger of monetary
pressure this spring seems less, unless
it should come through the determined
effort of individuals, but the state of bank
reserves renders such an operation entirely
possible. Foreign exchange has declined.
The lower prices of producers help to make
exports large. and the bank of England
gains rapidly in specie. Wheat declined
about 8 cents, but is now recovering. Corn
has fallen about l q cents. Oil has re-
manned without important change, and lard
has declined nearly half a cent. Cotton, on
the contrary, has advanced to 10 cents, with
large exports. An advance in wheat rates
to 1S cents from Minneapolis to Chicago.
by the Northwestern pool, instead of ~
cents, threatens to affect Chicago mar
that wool. instead of advancing
with foreign prices, has been forced down
by the dullness in goods. Stocks on hand
are ample, and there is no fear of a short
clip, but growers still hold expectations of
higher prices. No change is noted in
wOolen goods. The distribution of cOttOnS
is more active as the change in ght rates
| draws near, bIt prices are only firm, and
| print clothes declined shade A better
feeling is noted in boots and shoes, many
producers being pressed to meet March de-
liveres, and the Massachusetts shops steadily
increase their supply of labor The demand
for money is active, but the supply is ade-
quate at Chicago and st. Louis. The
business failures during the week number:
For the United States, 1877; for Canada, 33,
or total of 220. against 2S2 last week and
225 i'll the corresponding week of last year.

Col. Canaday.Hurt.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Col. W. P.
Canaday, sergeant-at-arms of the senate.
met with what might have been serious,
if not fatal, accident while riding down
Pennsylvania avenue on horseback this
evening. There was a high wind and the
concrete pavement was very slippery, and
between Eleventh and Twelfth streets Mr..
Canaday's horse slipped and fell partly
upon him, spraining and bruising badly one
of his legs Surgeon General Hamilton, of
the Marine hospital, was called to attend
him. and after making an examination, said
that the injury, although painful, was not
serious and would not confne him to his
room for more than three or four weeks.

y "Nigger in the Fence"

If there was not a "nigger in the fence" re-
garding the appointment of an additional
judge for this judicial district. or rather the
change of the division, we can't guess. The
original bill provided for six counties to COM
pose the new district and those along the line
of this road and judge residing within the
boundary of the new territory TO be selected,
etc. Now ii seems that an additional judge
is to be appointed and several counties set or
from the north part of the district, and the
new man, to preside irrespective OF the
wishes of the bar, is c. l.. Brown, of Morris.
There seems to be great blunder some
where, and the attorneys composing the bar
OF this district are dissatisfied with the result
of the change. G. Powers IS the choice OF
great majority of the district for the positioa
of Judge and should have been appointed.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Representa-

this city, expects an extra session of con-
gress to be called in October. He thinks
the deficiency and river and harbor bills
will need to be acted on before congress
meets in regular session in December, and
that it is important for the house to get Or
ganized and dispose of a lot of pressing
public business before the inevitable politi-
cal discussions begin. He does not expect
any contest over the speakership or the or
ganization of the house, and thinks il there
is to be any revision of the tariff the eXecu-
tive will have to take the initiative.
